I cannot say for sure. But... If the forend irons are the same as original Meriden irons, then no. BTFE irons are about 1/4" to 3/8" longer than splinter forends.

I have the same recollection as Greg. Maybe those who made those comments were mistaken about whether forend to gun or wood to metal was being discussed. Maybe someone has had a couple of guns apart and know more than we do.

If we could get Pat Dugan to tell us about swapping his Repro's splinter wood for a Repro beavertail and mounting it on his Repro iron and then if we could get Karl Ferguson (classicoi) to tell us about removing his Repro splinter wood and retrofitting an original Parker Bros. beavertail to his Repro iron we'll all be a little more informed.
